Word is incredibly slow to open up large documents - on network and when copied to local machine ?

Hi all,

I have a number of large documents that we are trying to open, and they are
taking an incredibly long time to open fully. I get the first few pages
quickly, but then you see the pages down the bottom left increment very
slowly. If I do a ctrl-end it repaginates very quickly and gets to the last
page fast.

Any ideas what could be causing this ? Office2K on both XP and Win2K
machines.

cheers,

Adam
